Aoba Office

This way of narrating gossip makes me doubt the authenticity.

I couldn't question it directly in front of the front desk lady. After chatting for a while, Lu Qiaolan and I went to room 308, which the front desk lady mentioned.

It's an old small hotel. The corridor is very dark. There are basically no lights on. Only the windows at both ends of the corridor have light coming in.

Room 308 is in the middle of the corridor and is very conspicuous because there is a police cordon at the door.

The yellow cordon tape is a little loose.

I tried to turn the door handle, but of course I couldn't open the door.

Just looking at the door, I didn't see any problems.

Recalling the dream carefully, Chen Xiaoqiu and Officer Zhuang walked smoothly. Chen Xiaoqiu held the box, the vibration was very small and there was no big movement. To cross this blockade, you have to at least bend down, right? I didn't feel that Chen Xiaoqiu made such an action. As for pulling the cordon off... I didn't hear the tape being pulled.

Things seemed weirder to me.

I heard the sound of the door opening clearly.

It’s impossible that Officer Zhuang didn’t know that a blockade was in place.

Is it really like Chen Zian said, what kind of ghost is breaking the wall? When a living person faces this situation, his mind is not clear, just like he can't distinguish reality from dreams, and he doesn't feel anything strange?

"Have you seen a ghost?" Lu Qiaolan asked me uneasily.

I shook my head, "Let's go to the hospital."

Their belongings were found in the hospital.

Lu Qiaolan is also more interested in the situation in the hospital. The teddy bear was found there.

The hotel is not far from the hospital.

We can see the gray building of the hospital when we go out.

Lu Qiaolan and I walked along the road.

The shops and people on the street gave me a weird feeling.

There are no big stores, nor the chain convenience stores that can be seen everywhere. The things sold in small stores and the brands of those products are also things I have never seen before.

The advertising posters posted in the store have all faded. There is one advertising poster for a major brand of beverage that I have seen before. In my mind, it was something I saw ten years ago.

Pedestrians and shopkeepers are also dressed in a somewhat rustic style. The clothes they wear are either very colorful or very gray.

It’s not that I have never been to small places. When I was in college, I went to my classmates’ hometown. I traveled several times and passed through mountain villages. Even just watching TV, I could see some conditions in remote areas, but those places did not give me any strange feeling.

Everyone who passes by seems to look at us.

I don't know if this is my imagination.

When we reached the intersection, there was no traffic light, and people around us were jaywalking nonchalantly. Lu Qiaolan and I followed the crowd, looked around to see if there were any cars, and then crossed the road.

Someone passed us by.

I paused and felt a dark wind blowing through me.

Looking back, I saw that the person who just passed by was carrying a heavy load on his back, wearing an old cloth shirt, old cloth shoes, and had plaster on his body.

The man had gray and white hair and was probably old.

Besides him, there were people talking loudly on their mobile phones.

There was a scantily clad woman posing, wearing high heels, and the thumping of her footsteps was very loud.

Most of the eyes of the people around are focused on women.

Lu Qiaolan pulled me up, and then I noticed a motorcycle passing by, spraying exhaust gas.

Lu Qiaolan looked at me and then at the woman with strange eyes.

It's hard for me to explain, so I can only smile bitterly in my heart. I turned around and took another look. The man talking on the phone and the old man in civilian clothes were gone. The woman reached the opposite side of the road, stood still, looked around, and then took out her cell phone.

A young man with a killer look came over to strike up a conversation, and he didn’t know what he said. The woman laughed so hard that she took the young man’s arm and walked forward.

Someone around them cursed.

Lu Qiaolan pulled me again, showing her dissatisfaction.

I followed Lu Qiaolan and continued walking forward, and asked in a low voice: "Did you feel anything?"

The dissatisfaction on Lu Qiaolan's face faded and she asked: "What?"

I shook my head, "I can't tell..."

I really can't tell.

The dark wind passed away in a flash. I looked over again and saw those three eye-catching entities. But when it comes to yin energy and ghosts, I didn't see them.

The two of us walked forward in silence and arrived at the hospital.

The Huixiang Hospital has a big sign. It must have been very grand when it was newly installed, but now it is as gray as this building.

The hospital is always a lively place, no matter where the hospital is or how big it is.

This experience comes from my life in Minqing City. Now it seems that it is also available in Huixiang.

Most of the people who go in and out of the hospital are the elderly.

Lu Qiaolan and I shuttled through it, but it was not too abrupt.

When I arrived at the front desk of the hospital, I asked the little nurse about the lost and found items.

The other party's work attitude is similar to that of the hotel front desk lady, who is very indifferent to people.

"Did you drop something?" Without answering, the nurse interrogated me first.

"A box of bears, and a cell phone." I answered.

The nurse's eyes changed and she said loudly: "That thing was given to the police. You go to the police station and ask for it."

The nurse next to me also looked over, with the same strange look in her eyes.

Since the other party mentioned the police station, I pretended not to know about the police station and said, "I went to the police station, but they said no."

"We don't have one here either!" the nurse said even louder, and slapped the table twice, "We are a hospital. If you don't want to see a doctor, just go away. Don't delay other patients!"

She said this confidently.

Lu Qiaolan missed her teddy bear and said louder than the nurse: "My things were lost here, how did you say anything? Did you take them away?"

I immediately added: "Two mobile phones cost several thousand yuan, and this matter won't be gone if you just say no."

The nurse suddenly became speechless.

The nurse next to us secretly took the phone, looked at us carefully, and whispered something to the other end of the phone.

"Which of you took the stuff?" I asked again.

The nurse muttered: "Who would take such evil things!"

Lu Qiaolan suddenly raised her eyebrows, as if she was about to get angry.

A chubby older security guard ran over and pulled us aside as if to stop a fight.

"The bear is really not here with us. We contacted the police station and sent it there. It is the police station, not the police station. You may have found the wrong place."

The security guard looked to be in his forties, middle-aged and stout, with a big beer belly, heavy bags under his eyes, and thick-knuckled hands. He forced a smile that didn't match his appearance.

"What do you mean by that little nurse? What is evil?" I said with a straight face, as if I would not give up.

The security guard looked at me and then at Lu Qiaolan.

Neither my seriousness nor Lu Qiaolan's anger were pretended.

I'm not working in the demolition office now, so I don't need to be good-tempered and patient. I also saw that these insiders were stern and frightened. Although I don’t know what they are afraid of, as long as I know they are afraid, I can forcefully ask them.

The security guard looked around at the people who were listening or even coming over, coughed, and asked us to go to a separate room.
